Smooth breakups...possible?

After ~6 months, my gf and I just broke up. I kinda knew this was coming since the end of December, but she initiated the talk today. So I wasn't too surprised. I'm not even sad about it right now... I guess our personalities were just too different...

Anyways, is there such thing as a smooth breakup? Or will I crash about it later in the week?

Yes, it's definitely possible. I've had 3 clean breakups.

As long as no one owes money. You should have some type of material incase the situation goes sour. ex: home video

It's very possible. I just had one in November with a girl I got along perfectly with. Never a fight, never even a disagreement and we were always doing something crazy, spontanious and fun. We were out of town almost every weekend for the 6 months we were together.

I broke it off because she was entering college and i was out and on my way to life. I knew we would eventually run into issues with me being on a more mature side of life than her so I cut it before problems arrose. (actually, i was forced to by Stiffy and Astro )Although, i adored this girl, i havent really thought much about it since.

It was a very clean breakup so its definitly possible.

If you both feel it's best to break up, it will definitely feel "better" than if it were one-sided. Doesn't mean you won't feel a loss or have a different lifestyle than the last six months, but might not hurt as much if *you* feel it was a good change for *yourself* too.

She was 21 and entering Community College. I just turned 27 the other day. Overall, she just had too much in front of her that is already behind me. So I cut it off before it became a problem.

with a .45 and a shovel, smooth break ups are very possible.

Good points everyone. It's Monday and I still feel nothing about it... I thought about it over the weekend and I think it might have to do with how much I've gained from the relationship. Definately an eye opener for me...
